Tea Producing Regions of India

Thank you for writing a hub about Tea producing regions of India. I have been to the South Indian regions (Munnar and Nilgiris) and always loved to take a walk along the tea garden. Recently I had a visit to Coorg in Karnataka where I had also visited a tea estate, though Coorg is more famous for Coffee.

I hope you don't mind a third visit from me - every time I read this hub I learn something new.

I would have thought that China would be higher on the list of producers of tea. I need to pay more attention about where my tea comes from. Statistics always interest me. Have you any information on the benefits of white tea versus black or herbal teas? Another hub perhaps?

Thank you Daisy for writing the kind of hubs that entice me to come back again and again. Doing more sharing. Audrey

Wow, this is one of the best hubs I have ever seen. The photos were selected really well, and the statistics make it very interesting.

I am a drink tea when you are sick kind of person and more of a coffee hound but really found this article interesting. It's been a while since I studied different countries and what their main products are.

Stopped by to take another wonderful 'tour' of your hub. I must admit, I've enjoyed reading this so much for the second time. It's been awhile since peppermint herbal tea has touched my palate and right now it sounds so good. I must pick some up. Take care dear Daisy ~

I love tea. having a great mango blend right now. thanks for getting the word out about what india has contributed to one of my favorite drinks. great hub

Thank you Daisy for teaching me so much about tea. I found this to be exceptional. My favorite tea is ginger which is made from fresh ginger. I've not tried the teas mentioned here in your hub.

I'm a "coffee in the morning and tea at night" person. Speaking of which...excuse me while I go and boil some purified water. :)

Great hub, informative and useful. I love tea, Darjeeling tea is my favorite, the next is Nilgiri Tea. Great write, voted up.

Fascinating hub. I could just picture myself wandering about these regions with tea cup in hand. Passing this on.

Hi Daisy!

Wonderful hub about Tea producing regions of India! Very informative with pictures, tables and maps.

Tea in fact is the most popular beverage of India. We start our day with a rich, aromatic cup of tea. And I have visited almost all the Tea gardens you have mentioned above. These gardens are heavenly and beautiful and give you a romantic feel.

The tea lovers are ready to spend any amount of money to buy their own favourite brand of Tea. And there are so many to choose from packaged in attractive boxes and pouches.

My favourite is Lipton green label, long leaf Darjeeling tea, which is rich and aromatic.

I just got carried away with your excellent hub and I feel like having a nice cup of Tea, NOW!

Thanks and Voted up!

Thank you for the information. It is good to know something about different cultures and country.

I have friends from India and they always offer tea and now I know.

Have a great day. :-)

Ah, nothing nicer in England on a hot day than a cup of Rosie and a nice cream scone...but...I am a coffee drinker normally. I am allergic to tea so I only drink it every once in a while but when I do have a cuppa, I always enjoy it. This article has a wealth of info about tea - my personal favourite is Earl Grey but I always drink it black with one sugar, no milk. It is amazing to think how many different flavours of tea are out there and of the work that goes in to creating the humble pot of tea.

This is a fantastic very informative hub :) It's so cool, I always learn so many new things from your hubs :) God bless you!

This hub just has to be a big hit! Who doesn't love tea? You've included everything we always wanted to know about tea and done it so beautifully. The maps and great video are certainly a great addition!

Voted up, useful, awesome, and interesting.

Hello,

This was so interesting! I love tea and learned a lot from your well-researched and really well-written article. The music video redirected me to YouTube, and I really enjoyed the music and performers---and am almost sure it was filmed in Macchu Picchu (where I travelled several years ago)!

Daisy, I had been forced to retire away from the HubPages just too long...so I came back and took a sip from the cup you had on offer for some time now..:)

Tea is by far, most Indians', particularly the North and East Indian's, favorite beverage. The black variety is usually referred as 'liquor tea' while the one with milk is made in different processes from the simplest English tea with little sugar and light milk to the elaborate recipes of Masala tea with lot of spices like cardamom and ginger. I have not ever tasted the Nilgiri or Munnar varieties- the mainstream Assam and Darjeeling have been the ones we take regularly. Loved your interest in this particular industry of my country and the way you organized the hub in neat chunks. Voted up and sharing.

Fascinating information, Daisy. I haven't had a good cup of tea since my favorite English Tea House closed down in Anchorage. Loved to spend a lazy Sunday afternoon having high tea with my lady friends. Now I'm going to have to find a tea house in Montana. (Ha!) :)

A great overview of one of my favorite drinks. Although I wasn't hearing any sound through the video -- was that intentional or is my computer on the blink? Voting this Up and Useful.

Daisy, I caught this earlier but wanted to leave a comment in support on the topic. Great article on tea in India. Tea is a favorite evening drink of mine to wind down for the day, especially decaf chai. Voted up.

I am a big tea lover but truly, I did not know that India produces so much tea & such qualitative.. Quite informative & detailed hub, voted up!

I am soo happy to see this over here! yes, tea is one of the specialities of india. A beautiful hub and brilliant highlight !

thank you, voted up :)

Daisy, so very I the resting and informative. I truly did not know much about tea and the areas of India that produce them until reading your article. I do love to drink a nice glass of tea (always have preferred tea over coffee, even though I am in the minority on this). Thank you for giving me some food for thought here. Have voted, shared and tweeted as always :)

The Camellia Sinensis is at the very top of my most wanted list for my garden! ^_^ I knew Japan and China produced a lot of tea but didn't realize India produced so much as well. Fantastic hub with great information. voting up and pinning

What a fantastic hub on Indian teas , Daisy. you've certainly spun an information rich, visually appealing, highly readable hub. This is an instant classic. I am a big tea lover and this brings back many flavours and memories to mind. I love that song too.. thanks for including it here.

Very informative hub on the tea producing areas. Now, my curiosity is up as to the differences in the tea produced in each area. Is there a difference in acidty and such, or how tea is rated. Also, enjoyed the video. Very different, beautiful costumes, and nonstop dancing. Great Job!

An Awesome, informative Hub. I particularly appreciate your maps because I like to visualize what I am reading about.

I have tasted all kinds of Indian tea. I have also been to tea plantation in India. As a tea lover, I enjoyed video and pictures in this hub. This hub is useful and informative.

Daisy: What an outstanding, well written and entertaining piece of writing. I think you have produced a work of contengency that is on par with National Geographic and such. The information contained here is well presented and easy to read. Awesome!
